Carroll Gets a Lawyer

Seattle Seahawks first year coach Pete Carroll remembers his days with Lawyer Milloy who played safety for Carroll during his tenure from 1997-1999 when he coached the Pats. Milloy was cut before the start of the 2004 season. He hooked up with Buffalo for three seasons before spending two in Atlanta and the last one in Seattle.

Milloy, a 15 year veteran, was pondering his next move other than retirement. The reuniting of Carroll and Milloy has gotten off to a great start. Milloy has been mentoring younger players and looks to play an active role in the Seahawk's defense.

Both Carroll and Milloy appear to be happy with the way things are working out. Their relationship is another example of how the NFL is one big network of players and coaches. So many players are given chances because of their relationships with their former coaches on the college or NFL level.
